Good videos to watch before a collapse class - Is this company still around..... If they are, they should make some updated videos

The top of the B post cut should be your last, so the B post does not lean towards the patient, when you are making the bottom cut.

You may or as I believe may not now that an overhand knot is made of two half hitches

Do you happen to have any information on those air struts. We have a bunch of them but are needing the rubber cups replaced on some. I can not find a make, model or anything about them. PLEASE HELP

Is using a stand to hold a house up a good idea?

I really wish this video started with measuring the angles and cutting the wood for the raker length.

The Honda tech's voice was perfect for this. He could be a professional voice actor if he isn't already.

Haven a foot asende can help I'm not sure if a multi pully us needed

Not a good option for working fast. Nice extra safety if you need to stay in one position for an extended period though.

NOT obsolete. Rescuers need to be knowledgeable and proficient in all manner of devices, and be able to pull out these "bulletproof" devices when the "cool and easy" new mechanical widgets break or don't work.

Single shoring jacks are typical installed from the top down. By setting the top one first you minimize the potential for the bank collapsing at the top of the trench under the feet of the worker that is setting the jack.

Offer abilities

The inverter on this car is known for failing unexpectedly. My 2013 has eaten two already, over 160k miles. Here's the rundown: - IMA light will come on along with the red 12v battery light. Regenerative braking and motor assist will stop working. The car will feel sluggish and the engine may cut out when you give it too much gas (it feels sort of like a failing alternator on a regular car). - Limp the car home ( and do not continue to drive it. If the battery dies, there are going to be more problems to deal with. - Under 150k miles, according to a Honda service bulletin, Honda will cover the cost of the replacement. If that's your case, then INSIST that they check the inverter first when you bring it to the dealership. I've heard of people getting the runaround for weeks when they bring their car in for this repair. - If you're not under 150k, then you're gonna need to buy a new one. Current part # is 1B200-RW0-020, and they call it either an Intelligent Inverter Unit (IIU) or Motor Power Unit (MPU); apparently those names are interchangeable. It's about $2300. - The replacement is pretty easy. Google "2012-2015 honda civic hybrid inverter service bulletin" to find the service bulletin, which includes a step-by-step procedure.

This setup would be much neater with the isolation loop at the collection point then making one side of the anchor adjustable.

The 81 and 83 tips are more for scrapping which is perfect for our line of work. The single digit tips are for cleaner cutting. Don’t worry about the dip. Leave that to the Facebook safety battalion.

Even if you have the strength you don't want to burn all your energy going up a 4:1 is a very viable setup

Rope going through a MPD with a double pelley on a Gibbs and a single on the MPD is a 5 to 1 according to the class I just had through CMC

Thanks

Best explanation of a basic English Reeve System I’ve found yet 😊👍 Thank you.

좋은 정보 감사^^

Swing it like it owes you money man

So your rescuers actually had no belay through the entire scenario. There was so much slack between the stokes and the rigging that the rescuer would have cratered before being caught by the other system. Please don’t teach this.

And all obsolete ten years ago. 🤦🏻‍♂️

This dudes favorite word? “Applications”

So there are rescuers on the rope that can't lift their own body weight. I think their strength might lay in planning and coordination perhaps. Letting the other team members that meet to requirements would leave the nonfit bodies less likely to be injured and be able to help the P/T if they need to lift them too. It's like sending a person into the CSE and they may or not have a 2nd rescuer tailing them depending on the size and rescue level required and having to haul 200-350 lbs > worker out while only being 150lbs with adv or below strength ( so decent fit but nothing remarkable or reliable for rescue).

AWESOME VIDEO THANKS

Great video!

If I need to bring a tripod to a higher deck, but there are no stairs, what is the best way to raise it? A clove hitch at the top and the bottom?

So, that’s what these tools are called. One episode of the TV show “Third Watch“ involved the rescue of an elderly woman who was trapped in ice, and I remember thinking the tools they used to break the ice enough to pull her out sounded like miniature jackhammers. Of course TW was a fictional show, but people I know who work in the emergency services and have watched it has said they did a good job portraying the police officers, firefighters and paramedics.

Such a great video! Thank you for sharing!!

Tried to download your video- it has a virus

Although Honda "improved" the battery of the Civic Hybrid from 2012 to 2015 (the hybrid was discontinued after 2015) all that you need to know about the car is when the IMA light does come on (and it will eventually) not even the Honda Mechanics know how to resolve the issue. I have a 2013 with about 100k and light has come on and when I took it to Honda the mechanics said the battery is fine and I need a new radiator. This is too bad for Honda and may be the biggest error that the company has ever made. I am not presently sure if they will ever be able to restore their VERY damaged reputation. Finally, if anyone out there knows what is REALLY causing the IMA light to come on from 2012 to 2015 then give an honest answer with evidence. I will never buy a HONDA again.

Good stuff. Thx

"Safety knots" are a pet peeve of mine. they add no safety to a properly tied knot and encourage using an unnecessary amount of rope to tie each knot.

Thanks !

AKA: the B post blow out......

I have a 2012 Honda Civic Hybrid with the IMA. I need help with a code I received on a scanner. The code is P0AE1. High Voltage Bypass Contactor Malfunction. On the dash, I have both IMA, check engine, and a couple of other lights on. Only one code. Could it be the hybrid battery? or something else. If I can get more info and help. Thank you very much!

This is well presented video. If I can make a suggestion, based on what I am seeing here, this is a classic American Death Triangle setup. At 1:53 you have a nice graphic to show the setup. IF the line fails at any point , it will unwind all the way through the other anchor. Again, I could be missing something but it appears as such.

Tri-loading the carbineer at the anchor strap?

2:43 you have created a 3:1 mechanical advantage if you are lifting yourself or a 2:1 mechanical advantage if you are getting lifted by someone on the ground. Every pound of force you pull on that rope is a pound taken off the MPD at the harness. If you + gear weigh 200lb, there is 66.7lb tension in the downline between the Gibbs and the MPD, 66.7lb tension in the upline from the MPD to the pulley, and 66.7lb tension in the downline between the pulley and your arms (while ascending). Your arms are holding 1/3rd of the weight and the harness is holding 2/3rds of the weight... Until you stop, then 100% of the weight is being held by the MPD at the harness. On the other hand, if you are being lifted from the ground, the forces are: Gibbs to MPD = 100lb (50%) MPD to pulley = 100lb (50%) pulley to ground crew = 100lb (50%) force in main line from Gibbs to anchor = 300lb (150%).

Hello Dalan. Just a question. When you showed the Foot straps attachment points you said that passing it through the handles is acceptable. Acceptable by whom? It isn't mentioned in any of factory manuals from what I remember. On the other hand good you passed rope through the handles just that it should be done through the center of the handles instead of the stitched handle area you guys passed it through. Remember that there are some models with that space reduced and in any case rope friction may start causing damage to the handle stitching. Nice videos you guys have posted!! Keep up the good work and Stay Safe

I hate this fucking car don’t buy

if there isn't any way to redirect the line at the entryway, is it ok to connect a pulley to the foot of the tripod and redirect the force?

Sistema otimo simples na montagem e eficiente!!!! parabens amigo!! abraço!!!

Even though the load is minimal, you agree with loading one side of a double pulley?

cool video, but one suggestion. spit your dip out before you hit record. it looks pretty unprofessional.

Right. Never remove from top down - if walls collapse, there is no accessing the lower shores. Where did this guy learn this? Is there a new methodology I'm unaware of?

That has got to be a pain in the ass to ascend any kind of real distance with. I'm sure it is possible but there are way more practical ways for a person to get up a rope... even an out of shape person. Why I don't see more frog systems in rope rescue is a mystery to me.

WRONG ... install top down... remove bottom up... always
